All very true, but none is relevant to my question. Does testing the water content in one place such as the master cylinder reservoir validly tell you the condition of the fluid throughout the system?

I don't understand this; how does changing the master cylinder reservoir fluid freshen the fluid in the lilnes and calipers?
